I have the selle san marco skn (not the ti version). No stitching on the saddle. I've had it for over a year and love it. I picked up the serfas stinger race comp yesterday. Rode about 20km on it so far and its really nice as well. No stitching either. The selle are on sale at Bikes on wheels for $35 right now. Would have grabbed one but I'd just bought the serfas from Mitch for a great price, and its comfy and styling. Form and function united together, a fixed gear faux pas indeed.
